gold that glitters," MAKE a virtue of
necessity" ''Screw your courage to the
sticking place" (not point), They
laugh that win, ''This is the short and

A CIRCULAR was received at the Navy
Department, Washington, July Ist, from
a Chicago man, announcing that he has
solved the problem of aerial navigation,
and is about to build great air-ship,
which will start on a journey on the
first of the new year on a voyage to the
North Pole. He estimates that a month
time will suffice for the voyage, allowing
ten days or two weeks for scientific OBJ
servations of phenomena. The ship
will carry 200 persons, and will travel at
speed of severity miles an hour. The
man is evidently crank.

A STARTLING FACT.

1t is not commonly known that a large
proportion of the rheumatism and neu-
ralgia extant Is traceable directly 20 the
diseased condition or imperfect action of
the kidneys and liver; therefore remedy
which cures the resulting disease must
have found and smitten the first cause.
Many persons using Athlophoros for
rheuDstism and neuralgia have been
surprised to find that chronic disorders of
the liver and kidneys have also been
greatly relieved and they have written
for an explanation. The fact is, that the
remedy acts directly on these organs,
cleansing them from all irritating sub.
stances and regulating their action. Taken
in connection with Athlophoros Pills this
is, without exception, the most valuable
kidney and liver remedy in the world, and
will cure large proportion of those who
have these diseases.
Charles F. Griffin, Stuart, Iowa, says:
have not had an ache or pain of rheu-
matism since used the Athlophoros, which
is now over a year ago. For three months 1
my store was closed, not being able to ate,
tend to my business at all. NV Joints
were swollen and there did not seem to be
any part of my body that did not ache.
After suffering in this way until the pain
was almost beyond endurance, / went to
the Colfax Springs to try the effects of the
water. The day left home had to be
carried down stairs. After remaining at
the Spring a month / came back, being
some better. After being home few weeks
weeks had relapse. It was at this time
that / learned of Athlophoros. sent for
bottle of it and in fifteen minutes after I
had taken the first dose felt its effects, and
when had finished the third bottle i was
well. Ihave not had any rheumatism since.

SAD SIGHT.
Two Little Infants Cast Out upon
The Cold World.

This mornings train brought from
Lamonte Mrs. Louise White, color
ed woman, residing one and a hall
miles from Dunksburg, in johnson
county. She had in charge two little
infants, bright mulattos, Stella aged
8 years, a beautiful sad-eyed little
wait, and Katie, a seven months old
babe quite as handsome.
THE STORY
as told by Mrs. White is as follows
The little ones are the daughters of
Cyrinda Vaughn, colored girl, who
died some three months since at
Dunksburg, in Pettis county. and left
them motherless; as for a father, they
never knew one, and perhaps never
will until the Judgment day. A
brother-in.law of the unfortunate
children took them and cared for them
in his family until some six weeks ago,
when his employer refused to allow
him to keep them on the place any
longer, and they were turned over
to Mrs. White by order of
Justice Fl. s.. Smith. She kept
them until now, but being a poor
woman and in poor health, she found
it impossible to provide for them, as
the county court allowed her but SO
for the entire six weeks, and she says
it cost her % cents per day for milk
for the babe alone. She again went
to Justice Smith, and this morning. as
result, arrived in the city with the
following note:
"LAMoNTE, Mo-, May 4, 1887.
County, receive these children at
depot, Kate and Della.
III. s. SMITH.
The county court was notified, and
as the children are too young to be
cared for at the county farm, they
were, by order of the court, placed in
the charge of Joseph Peltier, with Or
ders to take care of them. IF there is
any one who desires to take the little
waits they can get them there, and
they are undoubtedly interesting chill
dren. What will be their fate un-
less some kind hearted person, black
or white does do SO is too sad
to contemplate, but what
will be the reckoning of the heartless
father, whoever hefmay be, is still
more awful to think of when the f.
nal day shall come and their souls
appear before him in judgement. Life
to him on earth may be the some as if
he had never assumed the RESPONSE
bility of their being but eternity will
furnish long time for fruitless and
unavailing repentance.

The breath of chronic catarrh patient
is often so offensive that he cannot go into

After time liberation sets in, the spongy
bones are attacked and frequently entirely

fort is the dripping of the purulent secre-
